YEP! I did already swatch them for comparisons, the swatch marked as "possible real ____" is the true swatch for each pigment.

The ones that say "possible fake" were sold to me by someone else, and they were claimed to be Copper, Brass and Bronze pigments. I took the pics and sent them to someone who has the pigments to see if she could tell me which one was fake and which was real.

Ok, so I managed to snag pretty much full jars of wayyyy discontinued MAC Pigments in Brass, Copper, and Bronze.

My one question is, since I don't know what the old jars of MAC Pigments looked like, can anyone tell me if these jars are authentic? And if the pigments are?

From what I have seen the pigments in the jars are authentic, I just wondered if we had any MAC addicts with the original jars to compare to.

OMGOSH! You are SOOOOOOOOOO lucky!!! That is an AMAZING score! (pricey, but amazing none the less). I have all 3 (brass and bronze in original jars and a sample of copper) and you definitely have the real thing. My stickers on the bottom are black as well. I too have all of the MAC pigments (except the mattes, not a matte girl so I don't care about those, LOL). BUT, if you don't mind me asking, how did you get purple matte (I read this whole thread and saw that later on) (that is one color I would like to have a sample of). Congrats again and thanks for the GREAT pics and swatches!

Good score!! I've been debating about getting rid of mine, but I don't think I can, I'd regret it too much!!

sadly, my hubby just lost his job. I have a health condition, so if I need to pay for meds out of pocket, (waiting for the VA to help) I have a little insurance policy!! I will cry if i have to though.

I never find anything good at ccos! I did, however, find viva glam nicki, which was the one thing I was hunting for. But nothing super rare or hard to find.
